The Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8's do not focus particularly close (about 1:7). But this lens has decent bokeh and when teamed with the D300's pixel density/cropping ability, can be pressed into service as a macro-substitue when needed.
The following was shot at 135mm (my two-rings sharpest tele point). I've included a full frame shot of the berry bush for comparison.

Just another reason why I consider this the best value, most versatile lens in my kit. For those of you considering it.
